Just starting to play with cygwin.  I edited my
.profile to do some nice aliases, setting PATH and
bashprompt...
but I realize that as soon as I start a terminal using
xterm (I am using exceed as my Xserver, but shouldn't
matter) all the alias are gone (such as ls=ls
--color=auto, which is handy...), and I need to
deliberately source .profile again...any fix???
